Honda HR-V: DLC Circuit Troubleshooting

NOTE : If you suspect the HDS or the HDS DLC cable may be the source of the communication problem, verify that they are working properly by connecting them to a known-good, similar vehicle and system, and checking for communication problems.

1. HDS communication check:

  1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.
  2. Connect the HDS to the DLC.

NOTE : Make sure the HDS is properly connected to the DLC.

  1. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode, and turn on the HDS.

Does the HDS identify the vehicle?

YES

Go to step 2.

NO

Go to step 12.

2. Determine possible failure area (PGM-FI system, other systems):

  1. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs in the PGM-FI system with the HDS.
